handbrake cli handling

Post by godfather008 »

Hi there,

Is there a way (before moving a movie to it's final location) to run it through handbrake-cli / hbbatchbeast?

I can imagine putting "Temporary Download Folder" & "Completed Download Folder" on the same Drive so that a move of the extracted object is just a partition allocation modification.

I've been tinkering with "disable direct unpack" because the hbbatchbeast already starts crunching while the file is not complete.

I think i'm missing something.

Thanks for any clue(s)

I don't understand you completely, but maybe https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/scripts/post-p ... ng-scripts helps?

Note: if hbbatchbeast is a GUI application, then that won't work.

hbbatchbeast is a semi GUI, instructing the handbrakecli.exe to do "it's magic".

The hithub instructions point out to keep the "incomplete" folder out of it's scanning region to avoid double rendering.

I was just wondering if someone made a script to "steer" handbrakecli.exe as a postprocessor...
